Glad ya'll had a great time at Annadel
We had an epic weekend at Downieville.

Did you do Big Boulder, Pauley Creek (Baby Heads), and Second Divide?
I've got to find a way to make it back...
Everyone else did a loop of Pauley Creek and 2nd Divide Sunday morning...I was beat from the previous day's DH runs.
Definitely hittin' those trails ^^ next time

Yup. Trying to figure out what all I can squeeze into that time.
Aug 2/3 - Marin Century (Sat) + Local MTB ride (Sun)
Aug 9/10 - Local MTB ride (Sat) + Howell Mtn XC Race or Northstar DH Race (Sun)
Aug 16/17 - Lake Sonoma XC race (Sat) + AFM event @ Infineon (Sun)
Your weekends are booked!
We planned on going to Northstar but not sure when. My DH bike is almost ready.
We'll have to plan trips to Dville/N* when you visit us.

It's a conspiracy!! Specialized is taking over the world and will soon deploy its mind control bots at trails near you... But I've always been the one to go left when you say right.
BTW - glad you were able to sort your shock out.

I'm glad Lisa understands my budget as a student for the next 9 months
She was more than content with the Mavic wheelset I got her!
Not in our case - I think Lisa likes the lines of the Trek Fuel EX8 WSD a little more than anything Specialized offers! And she *really* liked the way the Cannondale Rize rode - despite it being a little big for her.
She actually has her eyes on a Yeti 575, which comes in an XS. The Blur will become the XC race bike, while whatever other bike she gets will become the All Mountain play bike. When she tested the Trek @ MTBike Oregon, she felt a lot more confident descending on the Trek than she did on her Blur - unfortunately, there aren't many (any) women-specific AM bikes in her size on the market.
I'm glad too that it is sorted out...we'll see how it holds on the next ride, hopefully no issues. At any rate, I'm pretty happy with the service of our local bike shop, they do take care of me

I'm thinking of doing the MTBR Wednesday Night Chabot ride. They usually split it into 3 groups according to ability, and they meet at Marciel Gate just off of Redwood Road.
A map that shows the location of Marciel Gate:

I don't think I'll be home in time to do that ride tonight. What's the actual meet time?

Yikes, Wednesday is my stay at work late day. Still want to make it one of these days. Have you been going to these? Also, there were three asian riders Monday night (very courteous) riding what looked like the extended loop, one stumpjumper I think and two treks. Anyone from here?

I actually have not been going to them, but I see the posts periodically on MTBR. I was riding on Monday, but it was at like 230ish
